Have you seen those wristbands that say W.W.J.D?
Well the other day my lovely hubby and I were discussing Jack Bauer from '24'!
My lovely hubby said - can you imagine if that wristband stood for What Would Jack Do?
We laughed as we realised - Jesus would do the perfect thing, loving, forgiving, while also remaining holy and Jack on the other hand would probably shoot them!

The fascinating thing about cheeseburgers...
So, isn't it fascinating that I could almost always eat a M's cheesburger.
I don't crave many things... chocolate occasionally and sometimes a hug...
But every now and then - I think 'ooohh a cheeseburger' - and if offered I rarely say no, because when offered the same feeling 'ooohh a cheeseburger' appears.
Ever had anything like that?

7 songs....
Ok, this is tough one... so, in no particular order,
1) 'We bow down' Viola Grafstrom. I love this song, I first heard it on my wedding day where a lovely friend of ours sang it as we walked down the aisle, she kept it as a surprise and it was beautiful. I have also seen Viola sing it live and she was amazing! Awesome!
2) 'Thanksgiving' George Winston. Actually I am not sure if he wrote it or he plays it. It is a piano piece and it is beautiful. My cousin plays beautifully and he made a copy of it for me. I love it, whenever I need to escape this is a piece I listen to.
3) 'I've had questions' Tim Hughes. This song is wonderful! I honestly have a whole load of questions and a lot remain unanswered, but 'there is one thing that I cling to, you are faithful, Jesus, you're true.'
4) 'Power of Two' the Indigo Girls. The Indigo girls play a country kinda rock pop and I really like it. I love the acoustic guitar in this sooooo much. This is my fave 'sitting in the car, driving fast, the sun is shining, on my own so I'm singing loud song' got one of those? If you haven't listened to them you should try them!
5) 'Thank You' Dido. Oh, every time I hear this song it reminds me that I am in love and that I am so thankful to God for everything that He has given me - ever!
6) 'Your name' Andy Bromley. The words of this song are powerful. And I guess, the truth is that I love the name of Jesus, it is just the sweetest name in the world and nothing could ever compare.
7) 'Tomorrow' ok, no idea, who but it is from the film 'annie' which was my FAVOURITE musical as a child and I used to go round singing, 'the sun will come out tomorrow, so you gotta hang on till tomorrow' and actually - the lyrics still work for me now if I'm having a bad day.
Oh I love music, isn't it great!

Heavenbound!
I just got the Phatfish album 'Heaven bound' and there is an amazing line in one of the songs which says,
'I know my life had it's beginning at your cross'
Wow! So true!
'I know my life had it's beginning at your cross'
Wow! So true!

If I am sunshine - why do I NEED some sun!
| You Are Sunshine |
 You are best known for: your warmth Your dominant state: connecting |
What Type of Weather Are You?
| You Are Chunky Monkey Ice Cream |
Truthfully, you're too spazzy to be chunky - you cheeky monkey! |
What'>http://www.blogthings.com/whatflavorbenandjerrysicecreamareyouquiz/">What Flavor Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Are You?
Why was I made?
Do you ever ponder?
Do you ever sit and wonder?
I am constantly busy and always planning things in my mind, whether that be a presentation for work, my shopping list or who I need to send birthday cards to this week... my mind is always active and I realised as I was standing at the Bus stop the other day, willing the Bus to come, that we are all pretty similar in this - people deep in thought - urgently moving to the 'next thing'.
I sort of stood outside myself for a moment and watched myself and realised that sometimes I get so caught up in the 'hectic ness' of life that I forget why I am here. Why am I here?
I was born to praise your name. I was born to lift you high Jesus...
And I realised something else too - todays worries are forgotten the moment they become part of the past. I worry about what I will do if I am late for work, or if I forget to ring someone but then I remember that tomorro I will have forgotten that I even went to work... it won't matter.
So it seems that I ought to spend more time doing that which I was born to do and less time worrying.
I love you Jesus, my best friend, my everything.
